Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Recombinant heat shock protein of mycobacterial origin with a molecular weight 70 kDa in concentration 0.1 μg/ml in vitro activates cytotoxic activity of mononuclear lymphocytes from peripheral blood of healthy donors against K-562 human erythroblastic leukemia cells sensitive to natural killers. In other concentrations (1.0 μg/ml and 10 μg/ml) this heat shock protein did not signifi cantly affect functional activity of mononuclear leukocytes. Expression of CD4, CD25, CD16 and CD56 on membrane of mononuclear leukocytes was also studied.
